It is melting our roads and buckling train tracks, changing our weather patterns and putting pressure on nature and agriculture.
The increase in heatwaves alone will literally kill more of us.
This recent heatwave sends a clear warning - our community must urgently mobilise for climate action and it needs political leaders who are up to the task.
The coming years are critical in the fight to protect the people we love and our planet from dangerous climate change.
The next NSW government can either fiddle while the climate heats beyond our control, or they can transform our community, economy and natural world by phasing out coal and powering our world by 100% renewable energy.
This transformation will bring with it great opportunities for new jobs and innovative technologies across the state.
Australia can transition away from being a quarry and lead the way on renewable innovation, exporting our science, know-how and clean solar power to the world.
NSW parliament needs some strong independent MPs like me to hold the major parties accountable on dealing with the climate emergency in NSW.
The task of phasing out fossil fuels is now critically urgent. We cannot squib it.”
Jeremy Buckingham
Independent NSW MP
